Obama Reassures Nation He's Still Running Country
Babylon Bee ^ | Jul 11, 2024 | Babylon Bee

U.S. — Despite rising tension within the Democratic Party and uncertainty regarding President Joe Biden's cognitive capacity and fitness to remain in the presidential race, former President Barack Obama reassured the nation that he is still running the country.

Obama's calming message that he remained in firm control of the United States came as a relief to millions of Americans who had begun to believe that their country was being supervised by a mentally defective dementia patient who lost his grasp of reality years ago.

"Don't worry, America, I'm still at the wheel," Obama said in a brief public statement. "Though I moved out of the White House in January 2017 following my two official terms, that doesn't mean I retired. I have been running things the last few years from behind the scenes while Joe walked around under the impression he was in charge. I want all Americans to know that the country is in my sure hands, just as it was back when I was behind the desk in the Oval Office… though I do still sneak back in every now and then to sit in the chair."

With calls for Biden to step down and let someone else take the Democratic nomination coming from prominent voices in government, media, and entertainment, Obama stressed that even if Biden remains in the race, re-electing him was the best way to make sure the Obama administration remained in power. "Don't worry about Joe," Obama said. "He'll be fine while we keep telling him he's president, and all of you can rest easy knowing that I'm still in the driver's seat."

At publishing time, Obama also assured voters that they still wouldn't ever have to worry about Hillary Clinton being president.

The Bee’s days are numbered. Biden has outdone the Bee every day of the week. If Biden continues, the Bee will become a Has Been.

So, the Bee transitioned from satire to news reporting?

That all depends on what he's trying to accomplish. Destruction of America? Right on track.

Well, he’s not doing a good job.

On the contrary, his efforts to dismantle the evil United States of America, tear down our institutions, and relegate us to 3rd World status, are succeeding apace.

Very funny. This is a gateway post. I wasted a lot of time binge viewing/reading Babylon Bee articles.

It's a very deep rabbit hole. Probably should have an "Caution: High Addiction Potential" warning label.

And don't overlook their video satires. They are hilarious and just as biting as the articles.

It is the last days of a country when one group take over and the other group has no fight.
The republicans are useless.. We have no one in Washington doing anything for Us.
What do they do all day.
